Hi! I'm Stephanie – nice to meet you!
I was born in vibrant Lima, Peru 🇵🇪 and have been calling beautiful Amsterdam 🇳🇱 home for the past 18 years. I work as a Corporate Recruiter by day, and by night (and weekends!) you’ll find me dancing, cooking up Peruvian dishes, or enjoying a glass of good wine with great company.

I love meeting people from different cultures, sharing stories, and connecting through food and music. Whether it's salsa, reggaeton or just a spontaneous kitchen dance party, I’m in! Hosting or surfing, I believe Couchsurfing is all about meaningful connections and unforgettable memories.

Looking forward to meeting kind souls, curious minds, and fellow lovers of food, culture and fun! 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe the best way to experience a place is through its people. I'm curious to meet new people while traveling.
I’m here to connect with open-minded and kind travelers, share stories, culture, and maybe a home-cooked meal. For me, it's not just about having a place to sleep, but about real connections, new friendships, and learning something from every experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

🎶 I like Latin music, salsa, reggaeton, bachata, anything with rhythm and good vibes.
🎬 I enjoy movies based on real life stories, especially those that are emotional, inspiring, or show a different perspective on life.
📚 I like books that are about personal growth, culture, or real life experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved from Peru to the Netherlands on my own when I was just 18 — completely new country, culture, and language. It was scary but exciting, and it shaped who I am today.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to cook delicious Peruvian dishes or show you some salsa moves.
I’m learning Spanish and would love to practice with you!
I’m always up for great conversations, cultural exchanges, and sharing a good meal with new friends.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Peruvian food tips, good conversation, and a fun dance session if you're up for it! I'm also happy to share stories and a few laughs.
